The kitchen did not have 1 sharp knife to cut a pineapple. Don’t expect to cut anything. Very much needed !! The glass ware was very limited to small juice glasses and a few cheap plastic bigger cups . As long as you ate out the place is wonderful. Great view of Waikiki beach
Our parking spot that was assigned us had owners trailer parked in it so make sure ahead of time you have a parking spot

The condo was very nice. Master bedroom had a walk in double shower. The second bath has a claw foot tub. It was a little difficult for our friends to stand up in the tub and use a shower wand to shower. They used our master bath for showers. The condo could use lamps in the living. It was on the 15th floor with only one other condo on our floor. Nice and quiet. Pool area wasn’t available due to construction. We would stay again. Mahalo for a great vacation.

We had a fantastic experience all around.
The unit is exactly as advertised and was in excellent condition. The view from the lanai is amazing!
The property manager, Shantel, was outstanding... quick replies to messages and very informative / helpful. She was also able to arrange transportation from the airport to the building.
I highly recommend this unit.
Great stay!

The condo is lovely and the renovations (floors, walls, beds, furniture) are all very nice and completely comfortable.
The location is perfect and the staff is very friendly and helpful.
The only unexpected problem we had was that one of our group has vision issues with both depth perception and glaucoma (fairly new issue) and the floors are black and reflective and the sitting area has no lighting (ceiling or table lamps), we found out quickly that this was an issue for them. Nothing to be done about it, except to be careful when moving about.
Note that bedside electrical outlets are not to be used, so if you require power for CPAP or other items bedside, pack long extension cords and painter's tape (to avoid tripping hazard).
There are food trucks about 2 blocks away that offer excellent meals to go. As well as many wonderful restaurants a short walk from the condo.

There was everything in the unit we needed. 1-minute walk to the beach. Free parking. Quick response from the property manager. The best thing was the view from the balcony!!
10.0
The property is located across the street from Waikiki beach. The view from the condo overlooks the ocean and has a large beautiful deck. The condo is gorgeous with very high end features. The only bad thing is the second bathroom only has a tub, not a shower. I knew that when we rented the place, but want to put it out there for others to see. The 4th floor has 2 showers that we used daily with our adult family of 6, so all was good. We enjoyed having free parking for our rental car. The kitchen was stocked with everything you need. The location is amazing. We would definitely stay again. Beautiful

Although the pool was under construction which was a bummer, the place was clean, had everything we needed, felt extremely safe, and was close to everything. That’s really all we could ask for… plus the views were stunning
Would stay here again and 100% recommend.
8.0
If you want to be in the middle of action and downtown this is the spot. Close to everything and getting in and out of valet as we explored island was easy. Valet and front desk were very nice. This unit not a penthouse as we anticipated it was in floor 15 and only 1 1/2 bath. The second is a claw foot tub which I didn’t noticie initially. It’s not really practical when traveling with a family of 8. We made it work. The place would be cleaned a bit more thoroughly we just went out and bout supplies so we could clean ourselves. Overall pleasant stay with those minor inconveniences.
6.0
Great place for a family of 4. Not the best for 2 couples who are a bit older. Harder to get in and out of the bathtub shower in second bathroom. The kitchen was equipped for basics but not for eating in a lot. We had trouble with the coffee maker, but the Kai coffee shop around the corner filled our needs.

Excellent location, well equipped, wonderful view cannot beat it! Friendly staff, convenient parking.
10.0
Great property. The balcony view was fantastic and definitely the main reason we booked and what we loved the most. The accommodation and amenities were great - the gym, spa, and hot tub all got used.
One drawback is that it doesn't have a shower in the main bathroom, so the entire family was in and out of the master bedroom which gave no privacy. PLEASE.... for the love of sanity at least put a shower curtain around the clawfoot tub in the main bathroom so it can actually be used as a shower.
Other than that, what a perfect location and view. Mahalo!

Beautiful place. Great view, we enjoyed our 5 nights, able to walk to restaurants and shopping. Dukes Beach across the road. Elliot was great, even ordered a birthday cake for my sister and put it in the refrigerator for us to surprise her. Helped us sing happy birthday to her. Free garage parking! My only complaint a slick shower floor and no bar for support. Needed in both bathrooms for safety

This is a great property at a can’t-beat location. All staff at the building were courteous and helpful, and the view is killer. Very comfortable condo and slept 5 (using the Murphy bed) easily. Would definitely stay here again.

I sought out a property in this specific building because the location is phenomenal, which is the best thing about it. This particular unit is nice and worked for our group of 6. We had a minor maintenance issue and the owners were very quick to respond and rectify it. It would be better if the 2nd bathroom had a regular shower, even though the clawed tub is really beautiful (just not practical). Check in was a little irritating which is the only category I gave 4 stars in. We were there at 8:30p as pre-planned, but had to wait nearly 1/2 hour to be greeted and let into the unit.
10.0
The room was clean. The dishes in the dishwasher were not. Good amenities. Close to everything. The balcony was excellent. My favourite part of the room. Beds are comfortable. The PlayStation does not have games downloaded. The controller requires charger but we couldn’t find the charger. Hosts were great.

Loved our stay! Convenient to beautiful Waikiki beach and fabulous shopping. We really appreciated the beach chairs and float! Mahalo!
10.0
Really good location with walking distance to most things on the main strip. We used the parking using the property's valet service which cost only tips and the valets were helpful. Good views. Some odd decoration choices but clean and usable. We did not have anyone meet us at the property, but check in and out process was not complicated. There was a few drink and snacks on arrival, so that was a pleasant bonus. Overall, a really good experience.
10.0
We had a lovely time. We appreciated the amazing view! The location is very convenient to shopping and restaurants. There were lots of towels for use, beach chairs, a float, boogie board, and sand toys. We just wish there would have been hand towels in the bathrooms and not just wash cloths but it all worked out and we definitely want to come back!

The listing looked so wonderful, and the real thing is somehow even better! Absolutely marvelous place to stay. The beds were so comfortable, and the Lanai is heavenly. perfect location and really nice amenities. We enjoyed playing pool and using the floaties.

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful condo. The only thing that was not great. Where is the pool temperature? But after complaining they finally turn the heater up. It was beautiful and we really enjoyed our stay.
10.0
The spacious condo was a great place to stay for our family. The condo and the entire building was very clean which we really appreciated. We were greeted by a friendly property manager who walked us through everything in the condo. We spent a lot of time on the large balcony watching the ocean and all of the activity on Waikiki beach. The pictures don't do the view justice. We really appreciated all of the beach items (umbrellas, chairs, boogie boards, etc) that came with the condo. The in-unit washer and dryer was a big plus as well. The hot tub and pool area are very nice and there is a large outdoor kitchen area with grills and fridges that you can reserve. Having free parking attached to the complex was very handy as we did a fair amount of driving to different beaches and hiking spots on the island. We would definitely stay here again.

We loved our stay! We were just a stone's throw away from the beach and had a great view from our lanai. The property is clean, well managed, and very well stocked... 10/10 for sure!

Great place just not the one listed
48 hours prior to our trip, we got a notice saying the condo we rented wasn't available due to work. It was stressful but they quickly booked us into the hotel in the same building.
Minuses of that- we didn't get the Murphy bed. So my nephew has to sleep on a much less comfortable bed. We missed all of the things they said the condo came with- although they did try to bring us stuff. We got really junky beach chairs instead of the promised Tommy Bahama chairs, for example.
For check in, we got delayed 8 hours. So we needed to check in after 9 pm. They charged us $25 more and made it seem like we were out sight-seeing even though our flight info was clear. They were inflexible on this which was frustrating- especially after getting delayed 8 hours.
The hotel is great. Great location. Great service. I cannot speak to this unit itself unfortunately.

Waikiki Experience
This property was great. The views from the balcony were a bit boxed in by other buildings, but you do have an incredible view of the surfers. Our family of eight fit comfortably in this property. Our check in with Shawn was great. He gave us some great suggestions that ended up leading us on some cool adventures. Food options are endless in the area. The noise from the street can be a bit loud at night. The complimentary parking and valet service was a game changer. My teenage kids wish the 2nd bathroom had a shower rather than a bath. All in all, if we were to come back to Waikiki, we would definitely return to this property.

Family vacation
It was a great location. Clean. There was a smell as we walked in and they said they had to move us due to problems/repair of the pipes. We stayed one night then moved to another condo in the building. It was a hassle to move all 8 of us, but overall worked out. Staff was great and accommodating.

Great location in heart of Waikiki beach
Terrific view from balcony. Fun property with many high tech features and unique touches. Murphy bed was very pleasant surprise, much better than any pullout coach. Very friendly staff and owners go to great length to help ensure a great stay.

Best Hawaii vacation ever
The condo is exactly as stated in the description. What you don't realize until you get there is how awesome the location is. You are really in the heart of everything and can walk to it all. The condo advertises it sleeps 8 and it does that very well. The only negative to the condo is the lack of a shower in the 2nd bathroom. I know the owners defend the bathtub in previous responses but it just doesn't work. None of the 8 in our party wanted to or had anytime to take a bath or to lock up a bathroom that long. The main bathroom with a shower divided from the sinks just made it so easy for multiple people to shower and others to get ready. That being said the condo is so awesome that we worked around it and the stay was incredible. We would definitely stay in this exact condo every time.

Hands down best location
Simply awesome. The property was immaculate in every request location was prime right at the center of Wakiki! The property pretty has everything you need. The owners are thoughtful. I am very OCD but if I was happy with the condo then just book it!! Chantelle and Elliott and his twin brothers were a great host.

Great condo, view was fabulous! Quiet building, I did no hear any other residents. Close to shops and restaurants but the best thing was the beach was right outside.
Comfy beds, and loved the swing on the lanai.
